Is there another way to enable the control version system in Google Drive to work with PDF files?
I attempted to connect a Google Drive folder using ocamlfuse on Cent OS to a Github repository, but git performed very slowly.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

It might vary based on the content within these PDFs. A large number of PDFs generated from text documents behave similarly to regular text files—you can view them in Notepad. However, many are actually binary files, and it's likely that Google doesn't have a way to compare them effectively.

Is the issue limited to .pdf files or affects all file types?
As I see it, the response is specifically about ".pdf" - it's safe to confirm.

The issue occurs with .pdf files but not with plain text files.
